Minehunter experience creates SME opportunity – Darren Burrowes, ATSA Defence Services

This week on the Defence Connect podcast, former Royal Australian Navy weapons engineer and ATSA Defence Services co-founders Darren Burrowes goes through the ins and outs of co-founding a successful defence SME and the brand’s expansion into BlueZone Group. As co-founder of the only start-up company resulting from the $1bn Minehunter Coastal Project, which saw six “Huon” Class Minehunter ships constructed for the Royal Australian Navy in Newcastle, Burrowes talks us through the company’s beginnings from “two guys and a mobile phone” to its current successes as an innovative leader in through-life support, robotics and electro-mechanical systems.
